yup, one of these horses at the harness track would of been more challanging. one of my friends at simulcast thought the other horses were waiting for him after he missed the break....gulfstreams version of the WWE....plus, thats going to help him when someone dishes out a 46 half in a real race.......

I really don't know what anyone expected yesterday. The race went just like it was supposed to. The fact that the slugs wouldn't press early doesn't change the fact that they were outclassed. And I don't understand why anyone was even looking to be overly impressed. It was what we thought it was- a paid workout designed to get a little racing under his belt and set him up for a legit prep in a month.

it wasn't a race, but a workout. not sure how it moved him forward at all to may. can't help wondering if overconfidence will be their undoing.
the plan with this horse illustrates perfectly why graded earnings at 2 should be removed from derby starter consideration.

The only thing it accomplished for me is that now I have an owner I dislike more than IEAH.

Did Repole run over your puppy or something?

Really. I certainly didn't like Uncle Mo going to the Timely Writer but comparing Repole to IEAH is crazy. A story that escaped a great deal of attention is that IEAH's Ruffian Equine Medical Center is currently closed and "re-structuring" for a May re-opening. They are scum.

Repole is just a character, comparing him to IEAH is fn stupid. If you like his personna or not racing could use 20 more Repole type owners. The world needs to be devoid of IEAH vermin, they have no place on this earth nevermind racing.

your right about the other riders waiting on him. It was their oppurtunity to cross over and kick some dirt in his face.
